I rewatched “The Richest Duck in the World!” and noticed something new. It’s only a theory, but it could easily be true, and… oh my God.
Bradford Buzzard has been working with Scrooge for about two decades or more by this episode, right? He's the CEO of McDuck Enterprises. He can overule Scrooge on business decisions and has access to and knowledge of everything, including Falcon Island, the portion of money afforded to it and that it's used for magical defence. Scrooge took the time to remove that island from all maps because he was so desperate for nobody to ever be able to meddle there. This is as top-secret as it gets. But Bradford knows. Scrooge trusts him implicitly with ALL his money. That's a lot of trust!
So Bradford almost certainly knows about the Bombie. It's hard to imagine a conversation where Scrooge told him about Falcon Island and what resources it needed without telling him why it needed them; and never before this episode has the Bombie been released due to financial strain. Not even in Scrooge and his finances' lowest point, when he was blowing through savings to search for Della, resorting to draining the Money Bin, his personal store of sentimentally valuable coins. Not even with Bradford wanting more of McDuck Enterprises' money available so he can siphon it off for FOWL. There was always, always something less important than Falcon Island.
But then Louie - an inexperienced, physically weak and unskilled eleven-year-old - becomes the richest person on Earth. On his very first morning in this position, he has to compensate for his wasteful spending by taking money from the company and Bradford immediately suggests cutting funding to the Bombie's containment measures. That is the first thing he comes up with. And he agrees to it unhesitatingly without a word of warning. This is why the entire plot of the episode happens!
Even more dammingly, he has a button specifically to deactivate the magical security system on hand at that moment. Without it, the Bombie escapes in an instant. But how did such a button come to exist in the first place? Scrooge would never have asked for it. Nobody else knew anything about Falcon Island. Bradford must have made it and connected it to that magic himself. He saw that Louie was vulnerable and wasted no time engineering his fall, unleashing a lethal threat upon him that was, as far as anyone knew, absolutely unstoppable, yet in a manner indirect enough to deflect suspicion from him.

SOUL EATER
Terrible Things (Grim Future AU)
partner/original creator: @teaableu
summary: 8 years ago, life for Death the Kid and Soul Evans took on a new normal. But the peace and quiet can only last for so long. This, they know. This, they expect. But the darkness looming on the horizon grows ever nearer, and the remaining inhabitants of Death City remain none the wiser. That is, until two lone travelers finally make it home.
Here's a list of all my aus + tiny explanations about them! Might make separate posts for all of them someday idk
1. Dad!Rex au
-Of course, the only au I've been public about so far. If you've seen my other posts about it, you already know what this is about, but if not, it's basically just a child (Theodore) crashing in Undar while Emmet/Rex's still there. Theo helps with trauma, Rex realizes he doesn't want anyone to go through what he went through and as a result, Rex adopts more children. Basically just wholesomeness yesyes
2. Dualistic Sides au (idk)
-In an alternate timeline, Emmet gets saved a year before he becomes Rex. He's still traumatized though, so he's basically just Emmet with PTSD and trust issues. After like, maybe a few months, this version of Emmet, who let's call.. Evan, starts to get really depressed and misses being his past self, so he decided the only logical thing to do is to travel back in time to before he crashed in Undar. But of course, our Rex also still has that idea, so now it's basically just an 'angel and devil on your shoulder' situation as both Rex and Evan try to guide Emmet in their own plans respectively. Evan genuinely wants to help, but Rex just wants to manipulate Emmet. (Edit: I just realized that this au is REALLY similar to @thinknamewhat 's Time Rivals au so credits to them! shddhhsh I did not mean to practically copy paste it with just a few tweaks sorry 😭)
3. Undar Explorer au
-Instead of being paralyzed, Emmet can still move in Undar. But with his ship still destroyed, he's forced to survive in Undar all on his own. And instead of Undar being a barren planet, there are just enough life forces that it becomes a challenge. Oh also, his friends eventually crash in Undar as well a few years later, for drama✨ (this au is basically just a copy paste of Della's situation in DuckTales and. yeah 🙂)
4. Switched Situations au (Idk either 😭)
-Instead of Emmet crashing in Undar, this time it's Mayhem, Lucy, Unikitty, Benny, Metalbeard and Batman who crashes. Emmet's the one who manages to get through the Stairgate, but when he doesn't find his friends in the Systar System, he accuses Watevra of kidnapping them, and in turn, Watevra accuses Emmet and the other Apocalypseburgers of kidnapping Mayhem. Angry and devastated, they end up starting a deadly war against each other. And the ones who got stuck in Undar time travel to the past to: stop themselves from crashing, stop Emmet from confronting Watevra, and most importantly, stop the war.
5. Criminal au
-Self explanatory, instead of being masterbuilders who fight for a righteous cause, the masterbuilders are actual criminals who do crime and end up accidentally dragging Emmet into everything (happens during the first movie).
6. Ghost!Emmet au
-After Emmet sacrifices himself in TLM, he doesn't come back to life. He does come back as a ghost though. ..Yeah that's all there is to it, really.
7. The Worst Timeline/Replacement au
-Basically another dead!Emmet but so much worse! So here, Lucy doesn't arrive on time and Rex ends up killing Emmet. Everybody (as in, even the citizens of Apocalypseburg and the Systar System) eventually arrives to see Emmet dead and Lucy in complete despair. Rex explains everything and then just.. fades away because. Emmet's fucking dead. And now everyone's in even more despair. A year passes, and nobody has fully moved on yet, until eventually, it all becomes too much and Lucy and her friends all agree to time travel to the past to kidnap past Emmet, from wayyyyy back before the Duplos invaded, but still after TLM. They essentially gaslight and manipulate Emmet into thinking this was his original timeline. And.. yeah.
8. Lost Memories au
-Emmet just loses his memories after crashing in Undar. ..Actually I'm pretty sure someone already made an au about this, but I'm not sure?? If someone knows if anyone made this au yet, please tell me and I'll remove it here.
9. Mother Knows Best au
-Doris, Emmet's mom, got worried over Emmet's lack of contact, since he always contacts her, even after moving away. She decides to visit Apocalypseburg, only to find Syspocalypstar, and a memorial statue of Emmet, much to her surprise. After she finds Lucy and the others and gets them to explain, she begs them to help her find him. So feeling guilty, they all agree. And.. they do end up finding Emmet. Doris gets angry at Emmet's friends, thinking that if they've just searched more and put more effort in trying to find him, then he wouldn't have to have been so traumatized. She prevents Emmet from seeing them and becomes really overprotective. E.
10. Kids au
-Again, self-explanatory, it's basically just a prequel to TLM and it's the main cast (except Watevra and Mayhem of course) as children. It's literally just an excuse to write fluffy and angsty backstories about them, actually :b
11. Keeper Of The Timelines au
-After Rex back-to-the-future's in the 2nd movie, he becomes some sort of keeper of timelines, having access to the past, present, and future, he kinda subtly tries to keep everything going smoothly. From Emmet meeting Lucy, to him becoming the Special, to him meeting Rex, etc. And even though he knows not to interfere with already existing timelines, he still ensures that no more Emmets get stuck in Undar, or have to go through the same fate as him. Not if he can help it.
Yeah, that's all of them so far! Feel free to ask me questions if you're curious about any of them :)

Refecktion!Lads: 100000/10
The fact I haven’t seen this one before is a CRIME
screenshot edits & concept art based on an au based on a dream i had(both under the cut)
au:
Been playing around with an idea did an au w my fnaf si: Zhe & the ghost kids suddenly wake up in the ducktales 2017 universe, as anthropomorphic versions of the animatronic suits they inhabit, at the same age they were & wearing the clothes they were when they died!!
Obv this causes a lot of confusion--the sensations they feel as organics are way more intense than the limited sensations they had as animatronics, the last thing they remember is being animatronics, etc.
dream:
bro i had a dream i was my fnaf si, but like the version where she gets reincarnated as a ducktales 2017 character
and i was raising my 6+ kids (also reincarnated from the missing/ghost children)
we lived in a biiiig apartment complex, which was more long/wide than tall
a lot of the rooms were repurposed from other things--classrooms, dressing rooms, storage, cafeteria, stage, etc
me & my kids lived in a former dressing room with 7-8 compartments w curtains over the fronts for privacy
looked like this when standing in the doorway looking in
foxy, freddy, chica, bonnie, & golden freddy/fredbear's spirits roomed together in the raised dressing area (tiny rehearsal stage?) in the back. it had gold, purple, brown, & red curtains. it was two big curtains & one small curtain sewn together near the tops of the curtains
the fnaf 1 spirits slept in the raised area in a pile together. the stage was carpeted & filled with soft things--blankets, spare jackets, clothes, bean bags, mattresses, etc (there was no closets or drawers in the room).
in the side walls compartments, other fnaf ghost kids slept/roomed, including puppet/charlie, fnaf 2 toy ghosts, and also the original gosalyn from darkwing duck for some reason
della was my next-door neighbor & she gave me tips for saving money & dividing attention fairly between multiple kids. we became good friends who confided in & carpooled with each other!
I love DTLS and I love these two Definitely Real Friends!!! I think robot kids being friends rocks this is seriously one of the things that made me really excited to start DTLS, a favorite character making a new friend who is just as fun!! They have similar vibes a lot and I think they suit each other very well!
Robot kids of all time. The main mascots of the artificial kids poll. In the DTLS AU, Boyd even plays a part in getting Penny functional and then they're BUDDIES 🥺🥺🥺 They're both so good and sweet and would be such wonderful friends!!
Billy and Grumpy:
These two are in a fic im working on [described vaguely in the gentle heart chris submission] and man these two are gonna be so huge im so excited. Grumpy Bear saw this kid who had been sold into experimentation by his mother and went "welp that one is mine." Billy was trapped in a sort of 'bubble' with a ton of tubes connected to his body, and the only way to stop the nanobot ghost he was possessing/being possessed by [its complicated] was to turn off his life support and Grumpy went mmm no fuck that I'm going to figure out a different way. And then he figured out the different way WHILE the ghost was trying to kill him!! And then when Billy was in a coma after the experience Grumpy waited by his bed for him to wake up the entire time so he wouldn't be alone in a new place that he didn't know after having been tortured for years.
And they just click immediately, Grumpy likes him and Billy likes that he says his thoughts and is willing to be openly unhappy, that he doesn't have to hide things. Grumpy likes re-introducing him to 'regular' life and Billy is so excited by the world, I think that makes Grumpy feel excited himself, which is kind of a big deal for him! I think Billy likes Grumpy a lot because he was the first one he saw when he woke up so its a special feeling. The first one he saw, and the first one to try and save him, and someone who was honest with him about what had happened and what he [Billy] had done during the riots. It's a completely different reality than what he had been living in just weeks prior and…. :D theyre not super similar and I think that's a fun dynamic also!
(Emcee note: Because DTLS takes place in the Ducktales universe, all RWBY characters are anthro animals, which is why Penny is depicted here as a red panda.)
🤡 - What's a line, scene, or exchange you've written that made you laugh?
hmm. well, anything with Cal and Trilla makes me laugh, because I headcanon them to act like very petty siblings and I love it. Here's a scene that cracked me up:
“I wasn’t really going to slice you into pieces, you know,” the girl said. “If you join me, I’ll spare your friend.”
“No thanks. The Empire sounds horrible.”
She dodged his attack easily. “Oh, please, it’s not all bad. We’ve got cookies. Loads of them.”
“I’m not exchanging cookies for my freedom.”
“You clearly haven’t tried them!”
“I never ever want to!”
🎶 - Do you listen to music while you write? What song have you been playing on loop lately?
Heck yeah!! I love music. Currently I’ve been listening to Bear Ghost’s stuff and I found a really cute song called Your Stupid Face (MAJOR rivals to lovers vibes) which not only fits the main couple from the book I’m writing, but also one of my favorite SW OC ships I’ve made. hehe
🏆 - What's your most popular fic?
According to Ao3, it’s this one — a bonkers roleswap DuckTales AU fic I started when I was super into DT, however I haven’t updated it in like a year 🫠 it was super creative tho! I still think about it from time to time
💞 - Who's your comfort character?
Luckily for you I have more than one comfort character because they rotate in my brain like a chicken on a spit stick (WOW that sounded Southern and for the record I'm absolutely not 😂). does Kanera count even tho they’re two characters? Because they’re absolutely my comfort OTP
actually all my names -> Thomas, Richie, Leaf, Owen, Noel, Poison, Betty, Sheila, Orpheus, Marvin (they're all stolen from fictional characters, like 8/10 from musicals.)
nicknames are cool i especially like tommy and marv :)
